The Louisiana rapper says he is giving sobriety a chance while living in South Korea and trying to remain clear of trouble.
NBA YoungBoy is publicly discussing an effort to stay sober, describing the process as an ongoing test rather than a completed milestone. In comments cited by Billboard, the Louisiana rapper said, “I’m trying to see if I really can make it to 6 months,” framing the goal as something he is still working toward.
The statement does not confirm how long NBA YoungBoy has currently been sober, what substances are involved, or whether he is participating in a formal treatment program. Those details were not provided in the available information. The six-month target appears to be a personal benchmark, but the circumstances surrounding it are not confirmed.
The rapper has also moved to South Korea, according to the report summary. The relocation is presented alongside his attempt to stay clean and out of trouble, although no additional explanation was provided about when the move took place, where in South Korea he is living, or how the change has affected his daily life and career.
NBA YoungBoy’s wording keeps the focus on the uncertainty of the process. Rather than announcing that he has reached a specific period of sobriety, he described himself as trying to find out whether he can achieve the six-month mark. That distinction leaves the current status of the effort open, while making clear that he is treating the goal as significant.
No further information was supplied about the rapper’s plans for music, performances, or public appearances during this period. It is therefore not confirmed whether his move or sobriety effort will lead to changes in his professional schedule. The available account centers on his personal attempt to remain sober and avoid trouble, not on a broader career announcement.
For a prominent rapper, a public statement about sobriety can draw attention to the challenges of maintaining a personal goal while under public scrutiny. In this case, the limited details make it important to distinguish between an expressed intention and a confirmed outcome. NBA YoungBoy has said he is trying to reach six months, but whether he achieves that milestone remains not confirmed.
His comments present sobriety as a work in progress, with South Korea serving as the setting for a reported effort to pursue a different course. For now, the clearest update is that NBA YoungBoy says he is attempting to stay clean, stay out of trouble, and determine whether he can reach the six-month goal.
